Hi guys, I'm a qualified installer, wind turbines are only good when u start talkin three phase and industrial size like u see on hill sides an in the sea solar photo voltaic panels are much better as u don't need sun u just need day light it's been shown even in winter with snow on them they can still produce power, they are also self cleaning, so no maintenance, as for the loft conversion u can have them fitted an just re located at a layer date shouldnt cost to much as it's the initial install that's the hard part also optimal power comes from as far south facing as possible and elevated at 30 degrees which some roofs are in pitch, if u want any help info or calcs doing pm as it'd give me something to do in my spare time as I got made redundant recently an there's only so many times u can detail ur car lmao
Hi jo jo yeah we did a school and covered 50 square metres of roof in the stuff it all depends on which way the roof faces and how big and what quality panels u buy, u can store the power in batteries as they generate in dc however the cost of the kit and the service costs after are phenomenal usually you use as much as u can by it feeding directly into your electricity supply however whatever you can't use, simply gets fed back onto the grid and u get paid for it if I remember rightly for every kwh u produce u get 24.4 pence whether u use it or not and then for every kwh put on the grid u get an extra 5p why u ask mate?
Hello friend pretty old but I do need your opinion.. I am looking to install these panels on home roof so can you share out your experience to help me out? Are they effective and worth to invest..just came back from Grand Designs Live and was looking into Solar Panels for the home to be fitted on the kitchen flat roof. Has anyone had these installed and saved £££?
